Stitching, Quilting, Crochet... my little hobby world

2009 nearly done

Hard to believe it's the end of another year. I don't feel like I've accomplished as much this year as I have in years past. But I know that I have finished quite a few projects.

I didn't get a blog post finished before Christmas, but I did finish the 3rd scarf for my eldest niece. The scarves were a hit (though the quilt was a little bigger hit for my youngest niece, who finally received her "big quilt"). Here is Alli's scarf:


I finally put together my December block of the month, so now I just need to get all the blocks put together with the setting kit. This is Cross and Crown:


Another update for Magnificent Wizard - this time out of the Q-Snaps:



The ornament in the last post was definitely an ornament, though we didn't put up a tree this year (timing, energy, etc.). We had stockings for the kitties, and they all enjoyed Christmas very much. Christmas Eve was spent running around to visit with family, and Christmas Day was very low-key, just CC and me hanging at the house, watching movies and reading and playing video games (and playing with the kitties). This weekend has been perfect, and I really hate that we are going to have to go back to work tomorrow. We're looking forward to having New Year's Day off, and may go see Avatar in the next couple of weeks.

I hope that 2010 is better for everyone. I know that 2009 has been really hard on a lot of people, so here's to a hearty recovery in 2010. May we all prosper and be at peace.

I have to agree with you..."May we all prosper and be at peace."

Magnificent Wizard looks great! I really like all the colors in it. The last scarf turned out great. Now you know you have helped keep your neices nice and warm.
Happy New Year to you!

 
WOW that dragon is Absolutely Stunning!!!

Hope you have a great new year!

 
Could you tell me the pattern for the scarves...they are beautiful!

Thanks so much!! And Joanie, the pattern is the Triple Curve Stitch from the Harmony Guide to Crocheting (or you can adapt it from the Elegant Lacy Stole pattern. That is essentially the same pattern sideways.
